He is my God, I trust His grace;
My fortress high, my shield divine,
My Saviour and my hiding place.
2 From God the victory I receive;
Most perfect is His holy way;
His word is tried, they who believe
Will find the Lord their shield and stay.
3 For who is God, and strong to save,
Beside the Lord, our God of might?
'Tis He that makes me strong and brave,
The Lord who guides my steps aright.
4 Thy free salvation is my shield,
My sure defense in every strait;
Thy hand upholds me, lest I yield;
Thy gentleness has made me great.
Amen. Scripture: Psalm 18 Used With Tune: MENDON Text Sources: The Psalter, 1912
